You can't tell can you?
Not too surprising as your morals have been corrupted by your religion and you call evil good.

It must have been quite a blow to God’s ego when Satan bested him and gained dominion over a third of God’s angels. He also lost dominion over the earth and all it produced. Including mankind which is why God places Satan in Eden at Satan’s request.
How do you know that Father did not place the thought into Satan to turn away for a purpose?

Scriptures tell us not to add to them.
Do so if you like. Many have.

So you can't answer me? If you ever can let me know, if you can't answer that simple question then you have no point.edit on 4-9-2013 by OccamsRazor04 because: (no reason given)

Correct. It shows that the question was not appropriate.

...in some super-galactic star wars episode filmed out of sequence - deconstructional-style, Lynchian Fire Walk With Me - drag the punters through all the discombobulated plot lines (oh yeah, cos the 'official' script is there for all to see - albeit open to the interpretation and rewriting/analysis by anyone patronising their local hotel/motel)...
Faulted 'eyewitness' accounts being reconstructed to make sense of puzzled passages in a blockbuster, once-in-a-lifetime, go-to, revised/reprinted/repackaged (with DVD extras) boxset...who got the Directors Cut

Apart from this notion not making sense, it doesnt make sense, if you subscribe to the words Almighty, Omniscient, Omnipotent Creator of all that is seen and unseen...and punters can play their little poker game side-commentary till the cows come home...dancing around the 'who will be saved - who won't', manufactured subplots that splinter the Creator of all that is seen and unseen into shards of nefarious characters (and their imagined intent/power)...that's choice in the working of...the given freedom to let your child climb that tree (as dangerous as falling from the first branch might be) and learning from its mistake (instead of not allowing it to do anything, under some draconian authoritarian mandate that removes choice)...but, that philosophical debate rages anyway (regardless of the nix-men who say there isn't - that would be free will, or not free will?)...how could you make the choice to question if there weren't?...like I said, apart from it not making sense, it doesn't make sense...God sells his soul to satan...great tabloid headline...but that's about it...

So because the KJV translates one verse this way then Satan is in control? The best translation is God was provoked by Satan's request. I already proved this to you, you simply don't care you are wrong.

If God has no ego, then what part of him demands all the ego feeding things he demands of us like love adoration and on and on?

Did I not say this in the previous post, "Lucifer and the Angels have absolute free will if they choose to rebel and live in the lower planes if they so desire." We also have this absolute free will. Just for an extreme example, if we decide to blow up the Earth, then we are free to do so. God will not intervene. However, if we ask Him to intervene, then He will. He does not demand anything from us. People worship God, show Him praise, and sacrifice things for Him. Well, He doesn't want any of that stuff. As I said in the past, God is within you. He wants you to raise your consciousness until you are there with Him. Then from there you will learn how to become a co-creator with Him.
So where do you get this thing where God demands love and adoration from us? The Bible? Well, in the Old Testament, it spoke much about Yahweh, yes? Yahweh was just jealous of the Israelites sometimes following other gods and making idols. Friend, an emotion like jealousy is a human emotion--something God doesn't have right? So why did Yahweh have a human emotion? You see, Yahweh is a god, part of the Elohim in fact. The Elohim was responsible for the creation of the entire Earth. But when Yahweh descended His mind down here in order to manifest a form that we could understand, he also gained the Ego. Anybody who comes down here has to have an Ego in order to function properly. But the Yahweh in Heaven DOES NOT have an EGO. Only His manifestation down here has one. ALL beings in the Material Universe has an Ego, some more or less. The Ego is not evil. It is a vehicle for you to exist in the Physical World. However, the Ego can blind and entrap you in this plane for a long time. So our goal is to destroy the ego. And once that happens, you will find yourself in Heaven with God.
